Prediction: 2-0
Albacete
Espanyol play host to Albacete at their Stage Front Stadium in the Segunda Division round 34. Los Periquitos are eager to climb to the automatic promotion berth and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against Albacete. Salvi Sanchez is pushing for a start after making his return from suspension in a goalless draw with Burgos, while Eduardo Exposito remains in the treatment room.
El Queso Mecanico, on the other hand, aim to put an end to their six-game winless run, but given their poor away record, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the Catalan outfit. You should know that Albacete have suffered six defeats in the previous eight away games in the Spanish second tier. The bad news for the visiting side is that important midfielder Riki Rodriguez misses Sunday’s La Liga 2 game through suspension.
Highlighted Team (Espanyol):
Espanyol are a Catalan club that plays in Spanish La Liga. Espanyol were founded in 1900 and their original name was Sociedad Espanola de Football. In 1901 the Catalan club changed its name to Club Espanol de Futbol. Los Periquitos used to play in bright yellow shirts in the past, but current colour of the team’s home kit is blue and white.
Espanyol’s fiercest rivals are Barcelona and the two teams face each other in the Catalan derby (Derbi barceloni). Espanyol have always been in Barca’s shadow, but it has to be noted that los Periquitos have won four Copa del Rey (Spanish Cup trophies).
The likes of Raul Tamudo, Jose Maria, Antonio Argiles and Mauricio Pochettino are players with most appearances for the Catalan outfit. Espanyol play their home games at Estadio Cornella-El Prat and the capacity of the stadium is 40,500. Los Periquitos have never participated in the Champions League.
